A service tag represents a group of IP address prefixes to help minimize complexity for security rule creation. You cannot create your own service tag, nor specify which IP addresses are included within a tag. Microsoft manages the address prefixes encompassed by the service tag, and automatically updates the service tag as addresses change.

Azure Firewall service tags can be used in the network rules destination field. You can use them in place of specific IP addresses.

Supported service tags

The following service tags are available for use in Azure firewall network rules:

AzureCloud (Resource Manager only): This tag denotes the IP address space for Azure including all datacenter public IP addresses. If you specify AzureCloud for the value, traffic is allowed or denied to Azure public IP addresses. If you only want to allow access to AzureCloud in a specific region, you can specify the region. For example, if you want to allow access only to Azure AzureCloud in the East US region, you could specify AzureCloud.EastUS as a service tag.

AzureTrafficManager (Resource Manager only): This tag denotes the IP address space for the Azure Traffic Manager probe IP addresses. More information on Traffic Manager probe IP addresses can be found in the Azure Traffic Manager FAQ.

Storage (Resource Manager only): This tag denotes the IP address space for the Azure Storage service. If you specify Storage for the value, traffic is allowed or denied to storage. If you only want to allow access to storage in a specific region, you can specify the region. For example, if you want to allow access only to Azure Storage in the East US region, you could specify Storage.EastUS as a service tag. The tag represents the service, but not specific instances of the service. For example, the tag represents the Azure Storage service, but not a specific Azure Storage account.

If you specify Sql for the value, traffic is allowed or denied to Sql. If you only want to allow access to Sql in a specific region, you can specify the region. For example, if you want to allow access only to Azure SQL Database in the East US region, you could specify Sql.EastUS as a service tag. The tag represents the service, but not specific instances of the service. For example, the tag represents the Azure SQL Database service, but not a specific SQL database or server.
